This is tablature — fret positions rather than chord names. Wide lines scroll sideways on their own, so the page never does.

Lyrics
Who's the black private dick
That's a sex machine to all the chicks?
(Shaft)
You're damn right
Who is the man
That would risk his neck for his brother man?
(Shaft)
Can you dig it?
Who's the cat that won't cop out
When there's danger all about?
(Shaft)
Right on
They say this cat Shaft is a bad mother
(Shut your mouth)
But I'm talkin' 'bout Shaft
(Then we can dig it)
He's a complicated man
But no one understands him but his woman
(John Shaft)
